The Avdiivka direction still remains one of the hottest spots in Donbas, but now the Pokrovsk direction is also under threat.
The main efforts of the Russian aggressors are currently focused on the Pokrovsk direction. So it is now under threat.
Military expert Mykhailo Zhyrokhov said this in an interview with OBOZ.UA.
"I think now we need to talk not about Avdiivka, but about the Pokrovsk direction. Because the overall goal of the Russians is clear – they are advancing towards Pokrovsk. It is the nearest target of their advance. With fewer forces, they are advancing towards Kurakhove from the side of Maryinka. That's all," the expert explained.
Zhyrokhov also added that the offensive actions of the Ukrainian Defense Forces are currently only local.
“When we dislodge Russian units from some small settlement, which actually no longer exists - yes, this is an improvement in tactical positions. But I wouldn't say there's any offensive in the conditions the Ukrainian army is in now," the expert added.
